I have had over 30 years of experience in providing short and long term individual therapy, as well as couples therapy, and in that time I have provided emotional healing, personal growth and understanding for people struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, grief and loss, relationships, couples issues, and life changes.

Waitlist for new clients
As a society, we are so scared to talk about death and dying, yet it is one of the very things that connects us all and makes us human.
Ready to punch the next person who says “Everything happens for a reason” or “Time heals all wounds”? You know that none of us make it to adulthood without experiencing loss. Everyone is grieving something. But it doesn't stop the crushing weight in your chest first thing in the morning. It also feels like snapping at your kids when you don’t mean to, being extra clumsy, exhausted, numb, or nursing a pervasive brain fog. The grief comes in waves; battering you, crashing into you, knocking you breathless to your knees. You may not see how yet but you will get through this, and I’m here as your guide and support along the way.

I specialize in working with individuals and couples struggling with stress & anxiety related to major life transitions (pregnancy, perinatal loss, birth of a child, loss of loved one, relationship changes, empty nest, career shifts, health crisis). Life transitions impact our identity, our relationships and our sense of Self, often in ways we don’t expect. If a life event feels overwhelming or is keeping you stuck in patterns of thinking/behaving that no longer serve you, let's talk. EMAIL inquiries are the most efficient way to reach me.

I treat people with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions and loss.
At times life can be unusually painful, scary and confusing. With the COVID-19 virus we are living through such a time. Generally speaking, we may feel anxious, sad, discouraged and alone, and not know what to do. When someone listens to us carefully, we learn how to listen to ourselves, to our own inner life. Talking things out with someone in this special way can help us become clearer about who we are, our strengths and also our self-defeating ways, so we can move forward with an improved sense of self and direction.

I am holistically oriented and work extensively with adults in transition and healing trauma, relationship issues, narcissistic abuse recovery; serious illness; caretaking, codependence; death and dying; grief and loss.
Counseling facilitates discovery and mastery of your inner resources. Spend less time on what you perceive as "wrong" and more time determining your true desires and manifesting them. View problems as opportunities to release limitations, to grow and to experience more joy. Clarify your true desires; learn that you are a powerful creator - in thought, word and deed. Recognize the guidance communicated by your emotions; focus on what is wanted now; release negative thoughts, images and bio-energetic blocks; allow more joy and good into your life; resolve trauma; manage stress and balance health by attending to body, mind and spirit.

Female Therapists

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?

In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.

Should I see a female therapist?

Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.

Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?

Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?

It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
